Something went wrong while I was attempting to restore a backup, and KDE System Guard ceased to display properly.

This is the correct display (command running from root: kdesudo ksysguard): [Image of proper display of KSysGuard]

This is the incorrect display (command: ksysguard): [Image of improper display of KSysGuard]

Here in the incorrect display, the menu bar is missing, and the tab "Process Table" is unclickable.

I have already tried to remove the directory ~/.kde/share/apps/ksysguard/ but to no avail.

My question: How do I restore KSysGuard back to factory defaults/normal functionality?

Disable Ethernet permanently to speed up boot time

as seen on Ask Ubuntu - Search for 'Ask Ubuntu'
I do not use the wired Ethernet Card. It seems to me that, Ubuntu is always trying in boot time to check the network via eth0, Which consumes some times and I guess this may slow down the boot process a bit.
